• "The intellect must reason laboriously to comprehend 'truth' but the intuition knows immediately" ~ Paul Palnik

• "If we listened to our intellect we'd never have a love affair. We'd never have a friendship. We'd never go in business because we'd be cynical: "It's gonna go wrong." Or "She's going to hurt me." Or,"I've had a couple of bad love affairs, so therefore . . ." Well, that's nonsense. You're going to miss life. You've got to jump off the cliff all the time and build your wings on the way down." ~ Ray Bradbury
